OMG that is the best thing ever!!! I'm totally stealing this phrase from you

Congratulations!

I plan on doing insanity after the new year too! I think I'm insane but I'm hoping it will help me get super toned. Can you imagine actually seeing the results they claim? Lol

My older brother has had this problem his whole life. He takes small bites, chews well and eats really slow. He never had lapband though.

OMG I'm a math teacher and I messed up that basic subtraction lol... 42 pounds

I was banded 9/4/12. I was 255 at my preop appointment. I had no pre op diet but was 251 the day of surgery. Today I am 213...41 pounds in 3.5 months. Amazing to me! I track my food but don't stick to a strict calorie goal and I exercise 4-5 days a week.

Wow!! You look fabulous!!!

Fabulous!! Congrats!!

When you go to add a food, pick the meal you are adding it to and it is a little scanner picture on the top right.

I teach high school math, Algebra 2 and AP statistics. I LOVE IT!!!

Prayers from CA as well. I couldn't have said it better myself Maddygram... I'm a teacher and a mother of a 2 and 4 year old and it horrifies me to think someone could do that.

Wow!! What a great Christmas present to yourself! Congrats!!

Dec1: 216.7 Dec8: 214.1 Dec15: 213.6 Down 0.5. I'll take it cause my pms cravings are rough this week lol

I went to put my belt on cause my pants fall down (which is an NSV in itself lol) and it was too big!! Like past the last hole about an inch and a half too big!!!! Woo HOOO!!!!

Congratulations you look fantastic!!!

Wow! Great job :-)

Checking in at 214.1!!! Down 2.6 pounds I FINALLY reached my first goal...pre pregnancy weight of 215. I'm so excited!!

I'm not sure how pregnancy is affected by the band but my surgeon made me sign a waiver saying I was not going to be trying to get pregnant for two years (I think it was 2 yrs). Luckily I am already done having kiddos. Good luck. I definitely suggest discussing it with your doctor. There is a pregnancy thread to look into as well on here.

That's amazing!! Congratulations!

I love it too!! I have become a snob as well. I have tried the honey and like it. I focus on my protein intake and don't worry about much else at this point.

You look fabulous! You are an inspiration!

Wow! You look great! You are an inspiration!

Awesome!! Great month!!

I agree with everyone else that says you need a new dr. Your office obviously is missing the whole point of the lap band and the way it is supposed to work. When you have the time if you could write a review on ANY site available about the dr. that would be really helpful in helping others to not have to experience this frustration with this office/surgeon.
